Philipp Burger in Landshut: Biography, Music and Controversial Dialogue at Trausnitz Castle
On October 5, 2026, Philipp Burger connects literary self-inquiry, personal encounters, and acoustic music in the White Hall of Trausnitz Castle. The musical reading of his autobiographical book Freedom with Scars – My Journey from the Right to Everywhere takes you deep into a biography that tells of origins, political missteps, responsibility, and personal transformation.
A Reading Between Memory and Present
At the center of the evening is Philipp Burger's conversational format Philipp Burger in Dialogue. The event is not intended as a classic political discussion round, but as an open author encounter where biographical experiences and societal questions interact. Burger's narrative perspective makes the reading a literary experience about attitude, change, and the difficult work on one's own history.
Autobiography as a Linguistic Self-Examination
Freedom with Scars approaches Burger's life path with the aim of not hiding personal decisions and political missteps. The title refers to the traces that the past leaves behind and to the process of taking responsibility. For literature enthusiasts, the evening opens up discussions about autobiographical writing, memory culture, and the question of how a person reorganizes their own story.
Acoustic Music as a Second Narrative Layer
The reading will be musically accompanied by Mattia Mariotti, the guitarist from Burger's solo project Philipp Burger & Band. In an acoustic setup, selected songs from the solo albums Controlled Anarchy and Borderland will be performed, including Recordman. Voice, text, and guitar create an intimate reading atmosphere where musical motifs complement the autobiographical passages.
An Evening at a Historic Location
The White Hall of Trausnitz Castle provides a special cultural setting for the event. Within historical walls, contemporary literature, music, and social discourse meet. This contrast between medieval architecture and modern self-reflection shapes the atmosphere of the evening and makes the author encounter in Landshut a distinct cultural event.
Conclusion: Experience Literature, Music, and Personal Responsibility Live

Philipp Burger opens the view of a life path marked by breaks and change, translating central themes of his book into an immediate stage form.
